Laboratory

Summary

The Laboratory of Information Dynamics and Reviews 2, led by Matthias Grossglauser and Patrick Thiran, is part of the School of Computer and Communication Sciences at EPFL. Their research focuses on statistical modeling of large dynamical systems involving human and technical agents, such as social and information networks, epidemic processes, human mobility, and recommender systems. They work at the intersection of machine learning, probabilistic modeling, data analytics, and performance analysis, covering areas like graph mining, mobility prediction, epidemics monitoring, distributed processes on graphs, active learning, and wireless networking. The lab also engages in various projects, including developing models for predicting subnational tuberculosis prevalence and studying the metric dimension of grid graphs.

Patrick Thiran

Patrick Thiran is a full professor in network and systems theory at the School of Computer and Communication Sciences at EPFL. He holds an electrical engineering degree from the Université Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, an M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the University of California at Berkeley, USA, and he received the PhD degree from EPFL, in 1996. He became an adjunct professor in 1998, an assistant professor in 2002, an associate professor in 2006 and a full professor in 2011. He was with Sprint Advanced Technology Labs in Burlingame, California, in 2000-01. His research interests are in communication and social networks, performance analysis and stochastic models. He is currently active in the analysis and design of wireless and PLC networks (scaling laws, medium access control), in network monitoring (network tomography, multi-layer networks), and data-driven network science. He also contributed to network calculus and to the theory of locally coupled neural networks and self-organizing maps. He served as an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems in 1997-99 and for the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking in 2006-10. He is currently on the editorial board of the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication. He is/was on the program committee of different conferences in networking, including ACM Sigcomm, Sigmetrics, IMC, CoNext and IEEE Infocom. He was TPC chair of AMC IMC 2011 and CoNext 2012. He is a Fellow of the Belgian American Educational Foundation and of the IEEE. He received the 1996 EPFL Doctoral Prize and the 2008 Crédit Suisse Teaching Award.
